![]() Note that I have no experience with AppleScript, so there is probably a better way to write the thing above, but I think that this idea could work to bring the tags into iTunes. the artist, album, year and genre of all files of an album typically have the same values and can be set together Generate tags from filenames Generate tags from the contents of tag fields Generate filenames from tags Generate playlist files Automatic. Or you could just export a CSV file and write some script which parses it and imports the information into iTunes. You could then export such a script from Kid3 and run it in the Script Editor or using osascript. Just use the Export function, create a new format and replace the tag contents (and playlist name, track numbers) using Kid3's format codes, for example "set artist of trk to "%" etc. You could let Kid3 generate such scripts for you. Set album of trk to "The Pulse Of Mourning"įor this example, you would have to change the name of the playlist as well as all the tags. Set pl to playlist named "Thurisaz - The Pulse Of Mourning" For example, you could write the following script in the Script Editor: You could import the WAV album into iTunes and afterwards set the tags using AppleScript. This is probably not the best possible solution as this would have to be done separately for each album. Yet another solution could be to import the information from the tags into the iTunes library "by hand". A format which probably works is Apple Lossless (ALAC). ![]() Snagging the app is as simple as installing any other regular app, so head to the following link to install it on your device. ![]() You could try AIFF, but I do not know if iTunes can read tags from such files. Step 1: Install Automatic Tag Editor The app that makes tagging your music library as easy as possible is called Automatic Tag Editor, and its available for free on the Google Play Store. If it has to be a lossless format, I would recommend FLAC, but this format is not supported by iTunes. You have now two possiblities: Either ditch iTunes and use another software (one user reported that he switched to Vox as a player, I would suggest VLC or Clementine) or use an audio format which has tag-support in iTunes. By the way, the Windows Explorer does not support tags on WAV files either. Unfortunately, iTunes does not seem to support any tags in WAV files, neither ID3v2.4.0 nor RIFF INFO, and neither does the Finder on macOS. There are some configuration options for RIFF INFO in Kid3 to improve compatibility, as discussed here. I have checked that RIFF INFO is seen by Audacity and Audacious, and it has been reported that some car stereos support RIFF INFO in WAV files. ID3v2.4.0 tags are supported by applications which use TagLib, e.g. The problem is that tags in WAV files are not widely supported. Another possibility is to use RIFF INFO tags, which are available in the "Tag 3" section of Kid3. From your description, I assume that you are using ID3v2 (v2.3.0 or v2.4.0) tag on your WAV files. Full list of changes.I suppose you did everything correctly: You see the edited information when opening the files in Kid3, so it is stored in the tags. As a new feature a user action is provided which can automatically fix ID3v2 standard violations. Several bugs are fixed, for example the handling of multiple path arguments of kid3-cli on Windows, and dealing with invalid keys in FLAC Vorbis comments. ![]() Kid3 Tag Editor works fast and its interface is very responsive to user actions with a reasonable amount of system resources and various program settings, you will be able to edit the tags of your music files in no time. The application can import information from various album data sources, such as MusicBrainz, Amazon, Discogs, TrackType, and many others. converting between ID3v1.1, ID3v2.3, and ID3v2.4 tags editing the aforementioned tag types editing tags of multiple files (as the tracks of an album have the same artists, year, and album and genre) generating filenames from tags and the other way around generating tags from contents of tag fields generating playlist files and automatically converting upper and lower cases. The main features of Kid3 Tag Editor are: Kid3 Tag Editor provides support for both ID3v1 and ID3v2 tags, and it handles the following audio formats: MP3, OGG, MPC, FLAC, MP2, MP4, Speex, WavPack, TrueAudio, WAV, WMA, and AIFF.
